Demonstration Project Plans and Reports

Demonstrations

The following sub-pages give brief descriptions of the geopolymer concrete demonstrations that have been carried out in Australasia. To date they consist of:-

- two cast in-situ geoplymer concrete paths at Curtin University, Perth, Western Australia, produced by the CSRP Geopolymer Program Group.

- a "readymix" plant set up by Zeobond (ref: www.zeobond.com ) using cast in-situ geopolymer concrete for the plant foundations, at their Campbellfield plant in Victoria, Australia. Concrete from the plant has been mixed and transported in a transit mixer to produce precast geopolymer panels and to cast in-situ a range of slab-on-ground structures.

Several other demonstration projects are planned or under construction at the moment and will be reported upon after initial installation. In each case, independent on-going measurement, testing and durability assessment is part of the project and in due course, results will be reported in the public domain literature. These projects include geopolymer concrete pipeline components, railways components, road structures, mine backfilling, toxic waste encapsulation and mining infrastructure.
